Okey dokey I already have a 500 watt grid-tie PV array.
What if I connected my turbine in parallel to the solar array that goes into the grid tiie inverter.

Anyone else thinking the same thing? The inverter can take it and all of the electricity would be converted and not just when it was over 14v etc.

Interesting idea or stupid? Could use some sort of relay to swith it of at night so that it didnt damage the grid tie inverter.

Everyone else thought the same thing.

A half-pound relay to protect a 2000-pound grid tie inverter, because they didn't think of that during the 10 years they were developing it.

Sorry.
